Abstract:The south navigation bridge of Zhangjinggao Yangtze River Bridge is a double-pylon double-span (2 300 m + 717 m) steel box girder suspension bridge. Its north navigation bridge is a double-pylon single-span (1 208 m) steel box girder suspension bridge. The steel box girder bridge deck element is pre-constructed with orthogonal steel deck slab with longitudinal L-ribs and apple-shaped holes. In order to meet the assembly clearance requirements between the upper partition groove and L-shaped stiffening rib, a manufacturing process for assembling the longitudinal L-rib plate element of the steel box girder bridge deck and the upper partition of the apple-shaped hole groove is proposed, which provides the reference for the assembly of similar plate units and partitions.
